Visit of the chapel of Audrière (16th century)

Visit of the Renaissance chapel of the Audrière (16th century)
17 and 18 September 2022Passed
(c) Laurent Blanchard

The chapel of the Audrière rises near the medieval manor transformed into a farm building after the Revolution. Today, it presents an astonishing massive silhouette, almost blind, flanked and quartered by hemi-cylinder buttresses and covered with tiles. Its remarkable Renaissance-style portal and the study of the building link the building to the years 1540-1550. The nave of two bays, covered with vaults on ribs and liernes, is exceptionally open to visitors.
The chapel has been under restoration since 2016. The owners will present the architectural history of the building and that of the Talensac, lords of Loudrière since the 14th century (book for sale).
